Chapter 44: Fond of Eating Bones
"Old Lu... back then, when you left my mother, was it also because you were seeking to transcend into the Saint realm, and thus went to the Spirit Realm to fight?" Lu Ran asked.
Of course the Big Dipper had heard of it. It was said that the Angel Entertainment City covered an area of nearly a thousand mu, featuring all kinds of amusement facilities that encompassed almost every attraction in the world. Who would have thought that it was actually run by these vampires, Lang Kun and his gang?
Taoist Masters Gu Qingyang and Taiyi paid no attention to me, simply talking amongst themselves! At this moment, the twelve Miao sabers and all the Balarus had already retreated behind me.
A major reason why the Ming family's design department clashed with Ding's spring collection this time was that she had been spending most of her time lately accompanying Tang Bao, leaving the affairs of the Ming family largely neglected.
This was the scent she had once longed for with such boundless greed, the embrace she had once yearned for so desperately, yet now she did not know how to approach it, nor how to indulge in that longing.
"Thank you, Elder!" Su Yingxue expressed her gratitude politely, reaching out to take the white jade box. Opening it to catch a glimpse of the immortal spirit grass inside, she broke into a foolish, enchanted smile.
"Brother Bei, your strategy is wrong," Xiami said. "You attacked way too fiercely right from the start. You should have dragged it out a bit longer and, in the end, pretended to barely scrape by with a difficult victory against your opponent."
Su Nian'an had never expected him to act like this. With wide eyes and slightly parted lips, he took advantage of her unpreparedness, his tongue wandering across her lips as he gently sucked and nibbled.
Qin Mucheng allowed her to hold him without interrupting his movements. She lay quietly against him, completely silent. Time seemed to stand still as the warm sunlight streamed in, and she closed her eyes once more, drifting into a peaceful sleep.
Yet upon entering that room, she failed to see Qiu Shiye and Yue Wei, causing her heart to sink. Could something have happened to the two of them?
Upon arriving at the meeting room, Fu Honghan discovered that only You Shenghai and Wang Boju had arrived. Feeling that this beneath his dignity, he grew quite irritated.
Not to mention that these family factions were exceptionally powerful one after another, Lord Qin alone held a status nowadays that was far from ordinary.
Upon hearing this response, Sima Hongge did not think it was merely boastful talk; instead, he felt a trace of shock, a sentiment shared by many others present.
Of course, developing and training abilities was always a good thing. Even for Xue Xu, Chen Mu still mainly encouraged him, though he required him to practice far away.
Gu Changsheng offered no resistance, understanding that this was simply the rule of the transaction—a safeguard employed by the other party to prevent him from suddenly turning violent and snatching away the contents of the brocade box.
Ever since returning from the Infinite City, she had developed the habit of stuffing daily necessities into the hem of her skirt on a whim, which actually came in handy now.
Ever since the seating arrangement was shuffled, Xue Xu naturally became the most unwelcome person during meals, as his abilities always brought to mind unpleasant associations and ruined everyone's appetite.
The Empress shook her head helplessly, ever since Old General Zhao hinted that Fubao had played a major role in enabling Dongshun Kingdom to so smoothly annihilate the one hundred thousand troops of Xishun Kingdom.
After finishing the call, Ye Fan thought to himself that since he was planning to return for the National Day holiday, he needed to manage his time properly.
"Mr. Lin, where, where are you feeling uncomfortable?" Sensing that Lin Aotian's expression was amiss, Jiang Changsheng asked in a flustered hurry.
The reason he chose not to dodge or break through was entirely because Lin Yun wanted to test the limits of his own physical defense.
"Step aside!" Facing the pincer attack of three Martial Saints, Lin Yang found herself completely unable to break through the current predicament. Driven by anxiety, her shoulder was even pierced by a long spear, and fresh blood instantly spewed forth.
"Hand over the evidence." Lin Yun uttered five calm words. Though his tone was flat, it was filled with an irresistible majesty.
Hearing Liu Ankui's immensely arrogant words, Ling Zhiyuan felt extremely annoyed. He reached out toward Qin Zong, signaling him to hand over the phone so he could speak with the man directly.
"What do you mean by that? Are you willing to use this sword as a stake?" Hearing this, Lao Liu immediately perked up.
The moment he crushed this Demon God Pearl, the Roc instantly regretted it. The thought of having to surrender one-third of his body's control to the Demon God was something he resisted a million times over.
"Third Master, you may not know this. It was Northern Barbarians who declared war first, and our alliance leader was merely forced into the battle." Its massive snake mouth parted to reveal a long, forked tongue as it spoke in a deep, clear voice.
Moreover, not long after their arrival, the Sea King Island had already been defeated and reduced to prisoners.
"Chen Ting, you have already been stripped of your title as prince by His Majesty. You have no qualification whatsoever to sit upon the throne. Step down at once." Taking a deep breath and wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Chen Qing云's gaze grew fierce once more as he shouted coldly.
The common folk gasped in shock, never expecting the Immortal Wuyun to look quite like this. Adults watched in mounting terror, while children cried out in fright, burying themselves in their parents' arms and daring not look another glance.
"Let's go!" Emperor Heyang wore a gloomy expression as he flew over to scoop up Emperor Yinmeng, fleeing without looking back. The rest of the Star Palace members also successively withdrew from the battlefield and followed after them.
"Aunt Bingbing!" Ziyang hid tightly in his mother's arms, feeling utterly blissful as he turned his head to call out sweetly to Du Bingbing.
He had assumed Lin Congming would no longer reply, seeing as the man had already offered a warning and done all that humanly could be done.
Yuan Guancheng was utterly astonished. What on earth was happening? Having raised Gu-insects for many years—even nurturing them with his own life, with the scars on his body all resulting from testing poisons upon himself—he had never encountered such a situation before.
Ignoring Fan Wuqi, Rakshasa shifted her waist again. With flowing hair and a graceful figure, every glance, smile, and movement radiated seductive charm, exuding a soul-stirring beauty that left those around her even more entranced.
